It might just be the biggest parole hearing of all time.

The fate of football legend O.J. Simpson will be decided on July 20 by the Nevada Board of Parole Commissioners, which is based in Carson City. Networks including ABC, NBC, CBS, CNN and ESPN will be airing the hearing live. More than 250 media credentials have been issued for the event.

Simpson, who is now 70 years old, was sentenced to a minimum of 9 years and a maximum of 33 years in prison in 2008 for his role in the armed robbery of two sports memorabilia agents at the Palace Station hotel-casino in Las Vegas.

He is currently incarcerated at Lovelock Correctional Center in northern Nevada.

Close friend Tom Scotto told USA Today that Simpson is optimistic about his chances of being paroled.

It is believed by most experts on the Nevada parole system that Simpson is a strong candidate for parole. Even the man who put him behind bars, retired Clark County District Attorney David Roger, supports his release. Also, his lawyer, Yale Galanter, says Simpson has been a model inmate.

If paroled, he will be eligible for release on Oct. 1. If he is not paroled, his next chance will be January 2018.

There's no doubt that many people are interested in the fate of one of the greatest football players of all time.

Sports Betting Experts has set betting odds on the parole hearing and on some of the questions concerning what life will be like for Simpson if he is set free.
